I was seeing a slight outline of my pupil in my vision for 2 weeks. I had a work trip and saw Dr Lee Hung Ming on my return. He was meticulous and he found a retinal tear, which was not obvious, but had to be urgently fixed by laser surgery. Dr Lee and his team are very experienced, highly professional and I am grateful to have him as my ophthalmologist. Thank you!!!

Freedom from spectacles thanks to Asia Pacific Eye Centre!From booking a consultation to the surgery, the entire process was very fuss free and quick. I took about 1.5 months only because I had dry eyes and had to do some extra checks. Dr Tan explained everything very clearly and felt very assuring. Other support staff were all nice and professional and I felt safe in their hands. The clinic does get quite busy on some days, but not overly concerning. Location is relatively convenient with the new train station just outside too.Recommend checking them out if you're considering eye related procedures.

My life was change once I finished my procedure here in Asia Pacific Eye centre. With Dr Lee years of experience and thousands of procedure done, his judgement and new SMILE LASIK technology, I can finally see without having the worry of being without my spectacle. The recovery rate is so much faster than conventional LASIK procedure. All the staff here is friendly and kind

Did ICL here with Dr Lee Hung Ming and he was really personal from the start to the end of the procedure. The whole process was very smooth and assuring (even during the operation itself). He is a very honest doctor too. He asked to see my surgery bill in the follow up consultation, and noticed the partnering hospital overcharged me. He called them to correct it right away and I got my refund! Very thankful for an honest Dr!

It took me literally over a year to bite the bullet and schedule my LASIK surgery. It has been only 5 days since and my eyesight is as good as new again 👀✨. Dr Tan Yar Li is very thorough, friendly and reassuring - I'd recommend her in a heartbeat. BEST DECISION YET, NO REGRETS!

Extremely professional, courteous and friendly staff. Doctor Lee answers all your questions and concerns with a big smile. He is also very good at explaining the options available to us and helping making the best choice. He did my husband’s cataract surgeries 4 years ago and this year it was my turn. The result…life changing .

Was recommended to Doctor Tan Yar Li as the wait for my surgery was too long and unbearable. Even before I get to see her, was deeply impressed by the different rooms housing various machines. It was an eye opener to know that there's so many different test just for the eyes. Definitely a First class eye centre.Was wowed over by Doctor Tan with her detailed explanation and the level of confidence for my comparatively rarer condition of Posterior Polar Cataract. Immediately fixed the next available schedule for the cataract surgery for both eyes.Just completed surgeries for both eyes and thanks to her magical hands and expertise everything went very well.Every follow up at the clinic was also a pleasant experience as the staff were equally professional and helpful befitting the first class eye centre.Never imagined I would get to have crystal clear vision again and I am enjoying every moment of it all thanks to Doctor Tan!If you want clear vision, or any treatment for your eyes, this is the right place for you!
